    The social gospel?

    Jesus sacrificed Himself by entering the holy of holies...not the forgiveness of forgivenesses. Don't be fooled by the carnal agenda of the self-interested ones. The cross is about sanctification. The blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin.

    The social gospel?

    Behold always misrepresents what I say. When I invite him to seek for God it's for the higher walk. I assume everyone here is a believer. But we need to get sorted out. Better now than on judgment day. So the scriptures are profitable for instruction, reproof and even rebuke into a righteous...

    The social gospel?

    Repentance is about our attitude. We change direction...return, repent towards God in both righteousness...the lower level and holiness...the higher level. In the higher repentance we get revival...being translated into the heavenly walk. But we can acknowledge our sinfulness like the Publican...

    The social gospel?

    The sins that are past as the bible says. That's why the sin nature has to be crucified to CLEANSE from sin...not just keep forgiving a person for continual sins. You want to sweep it under the rug. Ignore it. But your sinful ego is the elephant in the room. False. Men put Jesus on the...

    The social gospel?

    That's not the point of forgiveness. Poeple want God to overlook their sins...well He already does that. But sin is a SYMPTON of a bigger spiritual problem, that you are not addressing...or your cohorts are addressing. When a leper is healed...is the leprosy healed or just the skin cleared up...

    The social gospel?

    The believers that say Lord, Lord, and are rejected as lawless....workers of iniquity... were they sanctified first or forgiven first? A person who is forgiven can still be dead in their sins. The problem isn't a lack of forgiveness...but the lack of grace which is the power over sin and the...

    The social gospel?

    Exactly...about the second part. In a great house there are both vessels of honour and vessels of dishonour. I am showing how to avoid being cut-off or spit out. The wise will listen and depart from iniquity....the foolish ones will confidently strut into disaster.

    The social gospel?

    You don't believe the gospel...and the liberation from sin...that Jesus came to liberate those in prison. You want amnesty to keep sinning and call that the gospel. You are comfortable in your sin.

    The social gospel?

    1st cut believers are saved from the world and condemnation with the world. But these are not saved from the power of the flesh. That requires going to the cross as Paul says...It is no longer I... Maybe you hate the doctrine of Paul? Accuser of the brethren....for a VERY long time. Let's see...

    This is @Behold response to my post Episkopos said: PS: The devil hates that word "liberation" from sin. (Look up to his response in the talk box above) You just defended yourself as the devil. A slip-up? a...

    The social gospel?

    I assume all here are first cut believers. But few will have believed INTO Christ...to be where He is and walk in full sanctification. In Him is no sin. Is it wrong to desire your sanctification? Didn't Paul also desire that very thing to those whom he taught? I never allow myself to estimate...

    The social gospel?

    That's not what Paul said. Again, as per usual you misunderstand the words of Paul. Where sin is great (increased) the grace that overcomes it is greater (increased more). This means that we overcome sin by grace through faith. Same message as elsewhere. A rare admission on your part.

    The social gospel?

    False mischaracterization of God that smokescreens the true gospel. Don't allow your self-interest, self-preservation, self-defense mechanisms of the flesh overturn a decision from the inner man of faith to break free from the bondage of the flesh and the grasp of the devil into the waiting arms...

    The social gospel?

    Not in this case. Peter is showing the culpability of the mob that shouted...crucify Him. For these people they must repent and believe in Jesus or perish. They indeed have Jesus' blood on their hands. If they were already forgiven as you suggest, then they would not have to repent. Notice that...

    The social gospel?

    Without the blood there is no cleansing, liberation, freedom, from sin. Since you have no idea what that entails...having never experienced any cleansing...you have diverted the cross to your needs...namely that you realize you are under sin unless your beliefs get you off the hook. So the devil...

    The social gospel?

    Him, being delivered by the determinate will and foreknowledge of God, you have taken and by wicked hands have crucified and slain. Acts 2:23 God knew what men would do. But it was evil men who put Jesus on the cross. I am the mirror you are seeing yourself in. I leave it to others to decide...

    The social gospel?

    To attach forgiveness to atonement means you don't think that God is forgiving by nature. We are told that we are to forgive 70 x 7. Does God expect us to be more forgiving than He is. Do we have people saying that the mercies of mankind are eternal? Really? I think people underestimate how...

    The social gospel?

    God sent Jesus into the world knowing He would die at the hands of sinful men. God was in Christ. God did NOT put Jesus to death. We did that. Your god is evil. Your god is selfish and rewards selfishness and self-interest. False. God is sacrificial and self-less. Those who want to exploit...

    The social gospel?

    Do you hate your children? Even when they do bad things? God is love...and His mercy endures forever. But He will not put up with willful sins...or sins that deviate others from the truth. Whoever causes a meek one to sin will receive great wrath so that it would be better if that person had...

    The social gospel?

    That's not even in the mis-translations. You have God doing evil. But God was IN CHRIST reconciling the world to Himself. To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 2 Cor...
